ANS is committed to advancing, fostering, and promoting the development and application of nuclear sciences and technologies to benefit society.
Explore the many uses for nuclear science and its impact on energy, the environment, healthcare, food, and more.
Division Spotlight
Thermal Hydraulics
The division provides a forum for focused technical dialogue on thermal hydraulic technology in the nuclear industry. Specifically, this will include heat transfer and fluid mechanics involved in the utilization of nuclear energy. It is intended to attract the highest quality of theoretical and experimental work to ANS, including research on basic phenomena and application to nuclear system design.

Session Chair:
Matt Jasica (Argonne National Lab)
Whether it's giving a technical talk, outreach to the public, or advocating to policymakers, communication is an integral part of our jobs. This is especially crucial given the politicized nature of nuclear and misinformation surrounding it. While mythbusting and rational arguments are popular tools for countering misinformation, these style of arguments often hold less weight than deeper-rooted philosophical and cultural worldviews. Get ready to walk a mile in someone else's shoes as we explore the different ways nuclear and climate solutions may be perceived and how we talk about them.
